**Western Australia** — Occupying the country's vast western third, this state produces only a small share of Australia's wine but a high proportion of its most acclaimed bottles. **Wines & grapes** — The standout grapes are Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay, with fine Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon as well. Margaret River is the best-known region, joined by the cooler Great Southern. **Character** — Many of the top areas enjoy a maritime climate moderated by the surrounding oceans, favouring structured, elegant wines with good balance rather than sheer power.
